They also plan on showing at least one game free on their YouTube channel

Who are the commentators? I have to mute BT when watching Bundesliga because their main commentator has a terrible voice.

They'll just use the standard English feed. I'm just hoping it's not Phil Bonney

Sucks that Comcast doesn't have FS2 but the opening game will also be on FSN I believe.

I thought they said yesterday that the opening match (Bayern/Hamburg) was going to be on FS2 on Friday, Aug 14.



ETA: Here it is

quote:

Friday, August 14

2:30 p.m., Fox Sports 2, Fox Sports Net affiliates and Fox Deportes: Bayern Munich vs. Hamburg SV

In addition to expanded TV coverage, Fox will stream the game live on its YouTube channel free of charge. It will only be available to viewers within the United States.

That's much better that I was expecting. Luckily I get both FS1 and FS2. However, I still don't get beIn.

I was checked the tv lineup for Google in Kansas City. They seem to offer all the major sports channels except for BeIn. Oh well I've thought about getting it on some of the streaming services.

I thought about getting BeIn....but I don't think I would watch it enough to justify the price since EPL and Bundesliga are the 2 leagues in which I'm most interested.

BT's British, so I highly doubt it.

I'm just hoping for your sakes' that Fox won't be using their Bundesliga feed.

I hope they focus on (have games for) the teams where Americans are playing.

It seemed like in the early days of Fox Soccer Channel, they always had the big teams, but if there wasn't an obvious choice for the second game, they chose Fulham. Being able to watch McBride, Keller, Bocanegra often definitely helped my interest early on.
